A charmless photo of a very charming dress. I started this last Summer, before even learning that I was pregnant. Some would call it a sign that our baby is a girl; I'll call it the power of seeing/touching finished knits in the yarn shop! I wouldn't have given the pattern a second glance, had I not seen how beautiful it really is in person.
(details)
The cat made off with two of the buttons before I could attach them, but if they never turn up, I think the dress can survive as is. Hopefully I can get some modeled photos in a few months. (Yes, even if it's a boy.)

oh. my. goodness. this is absolute perfection!! it's a great dress and absolutely perfectly knitted. can't wait to see it on her.
It's sooo beautiful!!! I totally understand why you needed to knit it right away.
That looks so soft, definite heirloom material. I love the link to the baby bolero...looks like great fodder for 21st Birthday poster size photos! If you don't embarrass your offspring you're not doing your job.
it's so pretty! I hope I can make things like that someday!
Thank you!
Anki, I will remember that piece of parental wisdom!
it's adorable! such tiny buttons!
Wow -- stunning!! What a sweet, delicate little knit. Just gorgeous. And how fun if you had a girl to put in it! I'm still thinking about you and hoping your new little one has made his/her appearance in uncomplicated fashion.
This is so beautiful! A heirloom piece for sure...
